Here I will tell you what happened to me the other day. My best friend Alice and I was riding her brother’s four-wheeler. She was driving down a road when all of sudden we hit a sand pile and lost control. She was okay and I wasn’t. I was knocking unconscious. At first she didn’t know how to do but then she heard a truck coming down the road. So she waved down the driver and explain what had happened. The man got out of his truck with a second thought. He rushed over to her and called an ambulance. By that time I was starting to wake up. When I woke up, I saw the man stood over me. I thanked for him. That man was a hero.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
It’s natural for all kids to worry at times, and because of personality differences, some may worry more than others. 1. They typically worry about things like grades, tests, their changing bodies, fitting in with friends, the goal they missed at the soccer game, or whether they’ll be bullied (欺负), or left out. Luckily, parents can help kids manage worry and deal with everyday problems.
To help your kids manage what’s worrying them:
Find out what’s on their minds.
Be available and take an interest in what’s happening at school, on the team, and with your kids’ friends. 2. As you listen to stories of the day’s events, be sure to ask about what your kids think and feel about what happened. Sometimes just sharing the story with you can help lighten their load.
3.
Being interested in your child’s concerns shows they’re important to you, too, and helps kids feel supported and understood. Reassuring (令人安心的) comments can help—but usually only after you’ve heard your child out. Say that you understand your child’s feelings and the problem.
Guide kids to solutions.
4. When your child tells you about a problem, offer to help come up with a solution together. If your son is worried about an upcoming math test, for example, offering to help him study will lessen his concern about it.
Offer reassurance and comfort.
Sometimes when kids are worried, what they need most is a parent’s concern and comfort. 5. It helps kids to know that, whatever happens, parents will be there with love and support.
A. Show you care and understand.
B. Take casual opportunities to ask how it’s going.
C. It might come in the form of a hug or time spent together.
D. Kids sometimes worry about things that have already happened.
E. Not all the kids worry about their teachers when they start a new school.
F. What kids worry about is often related to the age and stage they’re in.
G. You can help reduce worries by helping kids learn to deal with challenging situations.
One form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn’t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned(皱眉) upon by their children and grandchildren?
Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.
When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn’t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: “I find it very relaxing. It’s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”
Another development that has favored “grey games” is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There’s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(策略) and simulation(模拟) games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challenges, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.
Some people argue that “grey gamers” simply don’t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the “grey gamers” may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. In games where speed is the main consideration, older people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction times. On the other hand, “grey gamers” have a preference for slower paced, mind challenging games.
1.The second paragraph is intended to ________.
A. show the best way to exercise the brain
B. stress the importance of good health
C. explain why grey gamers exist
D. teach how to play videogames
2.What was older people’s attitude towards personal computers at first?
A. Doubtful.B. Concerned.C. Enthusiastic.D. Supportive.
3.The method the author uses to develop Paragraph 4 is ________.
A. offering analysesB. giving examples
C. making comparisonsD. providing details
4.By saying “This couldn’t be further from the truth.” in Paragraph 5, the author means ________.
A. mind challenging games are not suitable for older people
B. children should improve their skills with practice
C. playing computer games requires analytical thinking
D. older people can perform well in some computer games
Campers Gene and Marie Marsden took pride in being good citizens when in the wild. While driving miles to the Green River Lakes area, they taught their children what they had learned in the bear safety handbook put out by the Bridger-Teton Forest Service.
Mr. and Mrs. Marsden did their best to keep a tidy camp. As the handbook had said to hang all food at least ten feet off the ground and four feet out from the trees, they did that and locked their food in their trailer(拖车) at night. It was already dark when they went to bed, but they perused the campsite with flashlights, making sure nothing was left out. Following the bear book’s advice, they slept a hundred yards from where they cooked their food, and kept the car near their tents, separated from the trailer, which they left up at the other camp.
The Marsdens liked having their dog Spike on guard. But on the first night, Spike would not stop barking. When Marie Marsden pulled the tent open and shone her flashlight, she saw a young bear.
They all piled into the car and drove quickly down the path, calling out of the window to Spike and abandoning the trailer. They drove to a pay phone and called a Fish and Game Department guard, who identified the bear by the white ring of the fur the Marsdens had seen around his neck. The authorities informed the Marsdens that the bear was a young male that they’d been keeping an eye on.
The next morning, the Marsdens heard helicopters circling over the mountain and wondered if it might have something to do with the bear.
After spending the night in the public campground, they drove back to their site. Wandering the area in search of clues, Marie came to a stop below a tall tree. She slapped her head and shouted, “Oh no!”
“What is it?” Gene asked.
Marie pointed at the ground where Spike’s dog food bowl lay upside down.
A week after their return home, the Marsdens read the headline in their local paper. “Bear Killed in Wind Rivers.” According to the article, the Fish and Game Department had shot the young bear because, having been rewarded for invading(侵入) a human campsite, it would likely to do so again.
The Marsdens knew they had been lucky in the encounter, yet much to their shame and sadness, they also knew that the bear had not.
1.What do we know about the Marsdens?
A. They went to the wild to watch the bear.
B. They did what the bear safety handbook had said.
C. They were the first people to trap the bear.
D. They abandoned their dog on seeing the bear.
2.The underlined work “perused” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A. examinedB. decoratedC. foundD. clean
3.Who is mostly to blame for the bear’s death according to the writer?
A. The bear.
B. The Bridger-Teton Forest Service.
C. The Fish and Game Department.
D. The Marsdens.
4.Where does this text most probably come from?
A. A study on habits of bears in the Western mountains.
B. A scientific report on human-bear relationships.
C. A human interest article in a camping magazine.
D. A handbook on bear’s living habits.
